Block management · across England and Wales

Block management, built on better software.

Since 2003 we have managed residential blocks on systems we built in-house — so transitions take days, every invoice is visible to leaseholders, and service charges stay below the market.

What we do

Two services, one system behind both.

Formed in 2003, Canonbury has helped thousands of leaseholders take the Right to Manage and run their blocks well. A recent £1.5m rebuild of our management systems means better service at lower cost.
